      @NollipfSense I was confused! I was looking for a dual PCIe card box, did not understand it was a box for one card, and the card has two or more ethernet ports... Thanks for the info and links... ! From hanging out at ebay it seems Mac minis mid 2011 are around $150 at the low end ( 4gb RAM and 500 Gb Hard drive) and around $200 at the high end (8gb RAM and 1Tb Hard Drive) ... pretty popular since they are user upgradeable...

      I went for the 2011 server with the quad core core i7 processor for $200 then upgrade it with dual 128GB SSD and 16GB RAM. I really wanted the 2012 Mac Mini server with the quad core i7 processor ... just didn't want to spend over $200 at the time, since those with 16GB RAM, and SSD was pricey for the seller upgrade.
